Balanced Diet Plans for Weight Loss – Men and Women
While creating a diet chart, it is important to make sure, that the food you eat is balanced and also you receive all the required nutrients for your body. Thus, make sure that you include the following nutrients in your diet plan.
1. Carbohydrates
Carbs are the body’s main source of energy and should make up half of your daily calorie requirement. However, it’s important to choose the right type of carbs.
For example, simple carbs, such as bread, biscuit, white rice, and wheat flour, contain too much sugar and are bad for you. Instead, opt for complex carbs that are high in fibre and packed with nutrients.

This is because fibre-rich complex carbs are harder to digest, making you feel full for longer, and are therefore the best option for weight management. Brown rice, Oats and millets such as ragi, jowar and bajra are all good complex carb choices.
2. Proteins
Most Indians fail to meet their daily protein requirement. This is troublesome, as proteins are essential to help the body build and repair tissue, muscles, cartilage, and skin and better blood flow.
A high protein diet can also help you lose weight and helps build uscle – which burns more calories than fat.

For instance, about 30% of your diet should consist of protein in the form of whole pulses (rajma, chole, lobhia, green gram), paneer, chickpea, milk, eggs, lean meat, or sprouts. Having one helping of protein with every meal is essential.
3. Fats
Fats, the notorious food group, is necessary for the body because they help produce hormones, absorb vitamins, and provide energy.
Experts suggest one-fifth or 20% of your diet must consist of healthy fats – polyunsaturated, monounsaturated, and Omega-3 fatty acids. It has also been proven by research that having a healthy approach to your fat diet plan will be beneficial.

For example, using a combination of oils for different meals – including olive oil, rice bran oil, mustard oil, soya bean, sesame, sunflower, and groundnut oil – along with restricted quantities of butter and ghee is the most optimal way to consume fats. But, you must avoid trans fats at all costs found in fried snacks and baked items.
4. Vitamins and Minerals
Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, calcium and iron are essential for the body as they support metabolism, nerve and muscle function, bone maintenance, and cell production.
